The Impact Of Students' Academic Performance On Information And Communication by Divinwac(m): 1:22pm On Aug 27, 2021
Revolutionary advancements fueled by Information and Communication Technology characterize today's world (Ict). Through the use of information and communication technology, the globe is being reduced to a global village, and Ict supports national growth and improved relationships with other nations. Ict refers to electronic and communication technologies that are linked to human interactive materials that may be used for a variety of teaching and learning activities (Cox, Preston and Cox, 1999a). The merger of two technologies, Information Technology (It) and Communication Technology (Ct), is known as Information Communication Technology (Ict) (Iwu, 2006).

Ict covers any technologies for manipulating communication of information, as well as any media used to record information, such as radio, television, and technology for voice and sound or picture communication utilizing a microphone, camera, loudspeaker, telephone/mobile phones (Osu, Udosen, and Akpan, 2010). Information and communication technologies (Icts) have become necessary and recognized as part of today's society, particularly in industrialized nations, to the point that they have given the educational system a new pedagogical perspective (Ololube, 2006). Information and communication technology facilities, according to Fari (2010), are all the facilities available for identifying, generating, processing, storing, packaging, preservation, conservation, and transmission of information, independent of time or distance limitations. In other terms, information and communication technologies (Icts) are information handling instruments that are used to produce, store, process, distribute, and exchange data. It is now a more effective instrument for engaging in global markets, boosting political responsibility, improving basic service delivery, and expanding local development prospects (Undp, 2006).

In one way or another, Ict facilities impact and affect people's private and corporate work lives. For global change, these Ict facilities are all-encompassing in sectors such as technology, socialization, politics, economics, and education. As a result, in this era of information explosion and technological development, it is critical for teachers, who act as major implementers of the nation's educational policy, to be well-informed and sufficiently equipped with Ict capabilities in order to work successfully. The government and agencies have spent extensively in computer integration in education and information and communication technology (Ict) to advance the educational sector during the previous few decades. Computer usage has benefited education (teaching techniques, research and development, and information technology) and other related fields. Computer appreciation skills refer to the knowledge and ability to utilize a computer effectively. It may also relate to a person's ability to use a computer and its applications to solve certain problems. It entails being able to use a computer without assistance and manage the software that comes with it. Nwafor, Terry (2004) (2015).

Most developing countries prioritize improving education quality, with policymakers agreeing that such gains may lead to fundamental shifts in productivity and promote long-term economic growth. The usage of Ict in the classroom can help students learn more and enhance their human capital. The use of computers in the classroom has increased learning outcomes and information exchange while also transforming teaching and learning. It has aided both instructors and students in their efforts to better the teaching and learning process. Computer appreciation skills are extremely essential in education, but they are plagued by a variety of issues, including a lack of funds to acquire a computer and its peripherals, a lack of resource workers, and a lack of use of Ict in the teaching and learning process. Albert (2015) aims to study the influence of students' information and communication technology appreciation skills on their academic achievement given this backdrop.
